blurry vision

Psyborg, if both your eyes had blurry vision I would say that is most likely the pred. It's famous for that. But the fact that you have the "blob" thing in one eye and the vision in that eye is strange is not consistent with a drug side effect. If it were me, I'd see another opthalmologist and I'd also ask my doc for a brain MRI. A CT will not show what a brain MRI will.

Hi Elephant, sorry to hear about your eyes. What did the doctor say?

I have cataracts in both eyes. Got worse with in 4 weeks. So I will have cataract surgery Sept 15! Wish me luck! Then three weeks after that the will do the right eye. I will be wearing goggles for six weeks. No sweat or water can get in my eyes....he doesn't want any infection brewing. So I will be taking eye drops too.

Hi, I had the same problem made worse as i only see out of the one eye and the cataract decided to pick that one. I have wore glasses since the age of 3-4 and had high strength varifocals(8.75) after the op i no longer wear glasses only for reading/computer. So there has been a good thing to come out of having Weg's. The op was so easy and i could see straight away....it really was like a miracle.
I have just got rid of the latest outbreak of Weg's(9 months on steroids) but it has left me with a nose and chin full of spots that go then overnight they are back!!!!!!
Good luck for your op.

Dee, I am looking forward to having this surgery. My eyes are getting worse...I have to drive my kids to school. Thank goodness it is not far. So I need this surgery. I will let you all know in detail how it went.

I have to admit I'm kind of having trouble not giving up on this eye thing. I feel like something isn't right, but I'm up to three eye doctors, a CT scan, and a visit to the specialist and nobody sees anything wrong with it. I had lasik surgery a few years ago so needing glasses again was very depressing, even if really only for the one eye. But it's not just blurriness it also has everything a bit faded out/washed out color wise too. But man it's getting expensive to keep chasing something everyone is telling me is in my head.
